So how did Cain do in South Carolina?

I'm just curious to know if Colbert's stunt of telling people to vote for Cain did any good? I really hope Colbert decides to get on the ballot, seeing him in the debates would be so great. He's so much smarter than all of those fools running.

1. Just a few thousand people — 1 percent of the vote

COLUMBIA, S.C. — Not many South Carolinians got on board the Stephen Colbert-commandeered Cain Train.

Just a few thousand people — 1 percent of the vote — went for Herman Cain in Saturday’s primary, despite the comedian’s effort to turn a joke out of Saturday’s primary results by urging fans to vote for the former Godfather’s CEO’s, whose name remained on the ballot.

But despite the positive reception on the College of Charleston’s campus Friday, when Colbert held a joint rally with Cain, college students interviewed said they and their friends didn’t take the joke seriously enough to follow through at their polling places on Saturday.

“Me personally, I viewed it as a gag,” Seth Whisnant, 24, a University of South Carolina student who voted for Ron Paul.

Steve Kropski, 26, a law student at the University of South Carolina, said he thinks most people will take Colbert’s endorsement of Cain as a joke. “I can’t imagine people would [actually vote for Cain], but I never underestimate that there are some people who did.”
